PuSh Festival presents Assembly (Radix Theatre)
By zquinn on November 24, 2008 - 9:32pm
Feb 4 - 7, 9pm; Feb 7 & 8, 4pm
Granville Island Hotel
Assembly confronts the desire for unity in an increasingly divided world. Presented in a hotel conference room, Assembly offers a wild and weird exploration of what it means to be human, with many laughs along the way. Four motivational speakers share their secrets for becoming whole in a seminar that gradually falls apart, then shatters altogether. With captivating staging and stirring original text, Assembly subverts expectations from beginning to end, as Radix remembers what getting together is all about.
Winner of the 2007 Vancouver Critics’ Choice Award for Innovation and a Jessie Richardson Award for Performance by an Ensemble. Selected as one of the top 12 performance events of 2007 by The Georgia Straight, Assembly will be featured at the National Arts Centre in April as part of BC Scene.
Based in Vancouver, Radix has been producing innovative and exciting performance events since 1988. Our mandate is to foster the creation and production of original, socially relevant interdisciplinary performance work with a focus on experimentation and collaborative creation. The company is currently steered by Andrew Laurenson, who works with a team of artistic associates in developing company direction and projects.
